I need help from the net. I will be a college senior (see? I can even spell
"college" now :-) this year, and I am thinking of going to graduate school.
I would appreciate help from 'youse guys' on the following topics:
1) What are the good/great schools for computer graphics? I am
particularly interested in computer graphics for architecture-- buildings,
not computer architecture. I would appreciate pointers to articles, pamphlets
(hype from colleges :-), personal opinions, and whatever else you can drum up.
2) Is it better to get a job right out of college, or go on to a Masters
degree? I know this question is vague. I'm weighing "get a Masters degree
and be a 'specialist' in the field" vs. "get real world experience, earn mucho
bucks (ha, ha), and maybe have Corporation X pay for a M.S. degree."
3) How wise is it to go into computer graphics now that the new graphics
chips make it easy enough for a chimpanzee to do graphics programming? Or am
I misinformed on the power of these chips?
Please, PLEASE, *PLEASE* send your responses according to the following
hierarchy (as I will be off of the net as of 9-20-86):
1) "Land mail:" Kim Alan Scott / 460 Churchdale Ave. / Salem, OR 97303
2) "e-mail:" kims@teklds.UUCP (or some such thing. I'm new on the net,
and still haven't figured out the e-mail system).
3) Posting to the net.
Thanks in advance!

be at that alternate reality know as......college)
